When choosing the most appropriate disinfection treatment: always follow the instructions
provided by the instruments’ manufacturer.
The operator’s competence and knowledge of the table of programs installed in the
machine, as well as the typology of instruments to treat, is essential for the correct choice of
the treatment cycle. The device offers options for several cycles, with different values of
Time-temperature exposure (Ao parameter) that are determined according to the criticality
of the medical devices to be processed.
Shared notion found in the sector’s technical literature: all “semi critical” instruments
processed through thermal disinfection which can’t undergo a subsequent sterilization,
should be processed with an Ao at least equal to 3000 (achieved, for example, with a process
type at 90°C 5min).
It is necessary to verify that the items to be treated and the selected washing cycle are
compatible in respect to the maximum temperatures reached and chemical products
applied.
The elements processed in the machine that are not entitled to a subsequent sterilization must be
perfectly dry in order to prevent the building up of bacterial colonies from residual condensation. If
necessary, an extra drying phase can be started.
